What is a Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) printer and how does it work?

A Continuous Inkjet (CIJ) printer is a non-contact industrial coding solution used to print variable information such as batch numbers, manufacturing dates, expiry dates, lot numbers, barcodes, QR codes and serial numbers directly onto products and packaging. Unlike contact printing methods, CIJ continuously generates ink droplets that are precisely controlled to produce high-quality codes on moving products.

Domino Ax-Series CIJ printers are designed to deliver reliable, high-speed coding on a wide range of materials including plastic, glass, metal, paperboard, flexible packaging and cables. Their advanced ink management and intuitive operation help manufacturers maintain consistent code quality while supporting efficient production.

 

Which industries are best suited for Domino Ax-Series Continuous Inkjet printers?

Domino Ax-Series CIJ printers are suitable for a wide range of manufacturing industries including food, beverage, dairy, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, personal care, chemicals, electronics, wire and cable, automotive and industrial products. They can print variable data on bottles, cartons, cans, pouches, labels, films, pipes, cables and many other substrates. With a broad portfolio of specialist inks and printer configurations, manufacturers can choose a solution that matches their production speed, substrate type and coding requirements.

 

Why should manufacturers choose Continuous Inkjet printing for high-speed production lines?

Continuous Inkjet technology is widely used because it combines speed, flexibility and reliability. It can print variable information on fast-moving production lines without making physical contact with the product, making it suitable for delicate, curved and irregular surfaces.

Domino Ax-Series printers support high-speed manufacturing while maintaining consistent code quality, helping reduce coding errors and minimise production interruptions. Their ability to integrate with automated production environments also supports improved operational efficiency.

 

Can Domino Ax-Series print on different packaging materials?

Yes. Domino Ax-Series printers are designed to print on a wide variety of packaging materials including plastic bottles, PET, HDPE, glass, aluminium cans, cartons, flexible films, laminated pouches, metal components, cables, pipes and coated or uncoated paper. Domino also offers a wide range of ink formulations to suit different substrates, production environments and post-production processes, helping manufacturers achieve durable and legible codes.

 

How can Domino Ax-Series help reduce production downtime?

Production downtime often results from maintenance, coding errors or unplanned equipment stoppages. Domino Ax-Series printers are designed with simplified maintenance features, intelligent ink management and an operator-friendly interface to help minimise interruptions.

 Depending on the model, routine service tasks can be completed quickly, helping manufacturers maximise Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and keep production lines running efficiently.

 

Can Domino Ax-Series print barcodes, QR codes and serial numbers?

Yes. Domino Ax-Series printers support the printing of variable data including text, logos, barcodes, QR codes, DataMatrix codes, serial numbers and batch information. This makes them suitable for product identification, traceability, promotional coding and regulatory compliance across multiple industries. When integrated with Domino automation solutions, manufacturers can also simplify product changeovers and centralise code management.

 

How do Domino Ax-Series printers support product traceability?

Product traceability requires accurate and consistent coding throughout the manufacturing process. Domino Ax-Series printers enable manufacturers to print production dates, expiry dates, lot numbers, serial numbers and machine-readable codes that support inventory management, product recalls and regulatory compliance. They can also integrate with factory automation and code management systems to help reduce manual intervention and improve coding accuracy.

 

What makes Domino Ax-Series easy to operate?

Domino Ax-Series printers feature an intuitive touchscreen interface and QuickStep software that simplifies message creation, product selection and printer operation. Operators can quickly configure print jobs, reduce the likelihood of coding mistakes and perform routine maintenance with minimal training. This ease of use helps manufacturers improve productivity while reducing the risk of operator errors during production.

 

How can manufacturers reduce coding and marking operating costs?

Reducing operating costs involves considering consumable usage, maintenance requirements, printer uptime and production efficiency - not just the initial equipment cost. Domino Ax-Series printers are designed to optimise ink usage, simplify routine maintenance and support reliable production. These features can help manufacturers improve overall equipment effectiveness and reduce the total cost of ownership over the life of the printer.

 

Can Domino Ax-Series integrate with smart manufacturing and Industry 4.0 systems?

Yes. Domino Ax-Series printers can integrate with factory automation and production management systems to support smarter manufacturing. Through Domino Cloud and automation solutions, manufacturers can access production insights, receive printer status notifications, manage coding information centrally and streamline product changeovers. These capabilities help improve production visibility, coding consistency and operational efficiency.

 

How do I choose the right Domino Ax-Series CIJ printer for my application?

The right printer depends on factors such as production speed, substrate type, print content, environmental conditions and future expansion plans. The Domino Ax-Series includes models ranging from value-focused solutions for everyday coding to high-performance printers for demanding, high-speed manufacturing environments. Evaluating your coding requirements with Domino's application specialists can help identify the most suitable solution for your production line.
